In Topic: Windows 64-bit may be a requirement for some future EA games

23 May 2012 - 08:40 AM

All CPU's capable of not running amd64 are to weak to even try and run modern games with so really that would not be an issue here.
I know quite a few people who have not gone to 64 bit windows because they have 4gb of ram, with 4gb of ram its better to just have a windows version that uses less ram and thus run on 32 bits because 64 bit windows and 64 bit programs in general just use quite a bit more memory than their 32 bit counterparts would do.

Also uploading youtube videos stops becoming a "leave it on all night" thing.

I can imagine but for me if I upload to youtube its taking longer to convert 1080p video by youtube than it takes to upload it.

The main benefit of fiber optics to me is not as much the down speed but the up speed, 40mbit down is what I would get with adsl compared to the 100mbit I get with fiber optics, however the just 2mbit up is really a killer, while I don't need 100mbit up 2mbit is just to little to even use torrents decently. Also nice to see that the Netherlands firmly holds its first place within europe.

In Topic: Crytek has DX11 graphics running in Crysis 3 on X360, PS3

Sure you can do some of the stuff done by dx11 in older platforms but it will most likely not good look as good and/or it would perform worse.

general tip ignore ubisoft launch titles, there are always a lot of them and they mostly suck/are bad ports.
